Anybody Can Do with WYSIWYG

The development of the technology of On-line Journal has now taken to a more developed stage. Before, web pages were developed by companies and web developers who has expertise in scripting hyper-text mark-up language and other web scripting language. To get a content on the Internet costs money. But later, as the market is reaching a wider Internet user, without spending money out of ones wallet, anybody can have their own personal website, where the owner can easily administrate, organize the contents and getting copyright of anything they publish without getting confused by the scripting.

Here is where the advance latest technology brings online journaling to become so practical and quick. The modern input method, WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) enables basic Internet users to approach the technology to express themselves to a wider audience. WYSIWYG is the current input interface technology that displays the actual look of the layout while the user is inputing the data or information. With this feature, bloggers or website administrators could focus more on the content instead the dizzying with the error codes. Here are two screen shots to look at.
Screen shot 1 - HTML Mode

Screen shot 2 - WYSIWYG mode
The second screen shot is the edit post page of blogger.com blog where you can find the input panel just like the one used in many modern word processor software. The upper screen shot is the actual script generated by interacting with the tool panel. Anybody can feel how easy and fun to get material posted.

10 years back, to get a content published on-line needs a real patience and knowledge. I administrated a few accounts on geocities.com in the late 90s,  whereas work on the accounts I have to deal with html scripting, and carefully patching the lines of the script with edited script to enable certain features. But now, just by a few clicks made your dream website looks comes  true. Perhaps, if you want to play around a bit to customize the design with the images, backgrounds and all that, a simple theme-installer panel performs it beautifully for you. You don't really need to fight with image editor and chopping the images to fit with the layout for your website anymore.

It is a lot easier to express yourself over Internet today. So why bother not to learn this easy technology. Besides, there are zillions out there provided for free. Teachers, for example, are the subject who really need to broadcast information for their students. Indeed, teachers should benefit from this technology. Why wait? let's start to logon to the Internet and share bountiful information of yours and get your students busy to make them able to also enjoy the positive features of information and knowledge sharing on Internet.
